Late Summer Tablescape

Putting together a late summer tablescape is a great way to make the transition from summer decor to fall decor. I like to start with our dining room decor. I’ve packed away the pops of bright summer colors and replaced them with some warmer tones.

I love using this copper pitcher to hold flower arrangements for tablescape decor. For this late summer tablescape, I filled it with stems that I bought at JoAnn Fabric and Craft recently. I used a circle of floral foam in the bottom of the pitcher. I had to cut it into two pieces to fit.

The warm colors are a pretty way to change things before going full on with fall decor. The pumpkins aren’t coming out yet! By using the foam in the pitcher, the stems can be arranged at different heights.

The pineapple napkin rings were a gift from Gloria for Mother’s Day this year. They go well with lots of my other pineapple decor, including the salt and pepper shakers. They can be used year round.

I paired white plates with gold chargers and neutral napkins. Using mixed metals is something I’ve been doing for a long while and I’m pleased to see that it’s currently on trend. The white plates are ones I frequently use for tablescapes because they can be dressed up with napkins and chargers to match the season. These plates were purchased at the Dollar Tree several years ago and they have held up so well.

Using small vintage bowls with an added bloom is an easy way to add a pop of color. These bowls are part of my depression era Iris Herringbone Pattern by Jeanette Glass Company.

I’m using more mixed metals on the side buffet. The tiered copper trays were purchased at TJ Maxx, the tiered marbled tray from Home Goods. The round marble tray with copper handles was another gift from Gloria.

Using warm tones and mixed metals is a pretty way to transition from summer to fall. There will be pumpkins added to the decor soon enough. For now, I’m enjoying this look.

Thanks, so much, Carol! I love copper accents and about a year ago I began using lots of them in my kitchen, dining room, and breakfast nook. I’ve just painted a tray in turquoise that I’ll be using on the breakfast nook table this year.

I am in love with these fall colors that have emerged in the last two years – probably out before, but I have only noticed in this time. That blue is just a beautiful color to pair with the other fall colorways. I especially like the stems in the pitcher. Definitely need to check my JoAnn’s for Some of those! The gold is a really nice touch too! Pinned.

Love your table, Beverly! This is Perfect for those of us anxiously awaiting the fall season, while still embracing the last days of summer! Love it! Shared and Pinned! I’ll be looking forward to trying a similar look! Thank you for sharing with me @ the TFT party! I hope you are having a wonderful week, Beverly <3
